I was one of the 2 guys out. double overhead with bigger ones breaking way outside. hard to get into because of the wind, but a dry hair paddle and some sweet ones if you were committed. well worth the drive. I have to say the waves were much bigger than the forecast suggested but I take that as a bonus. love the photo.

That sounds awesome Mr Blank. I had a pretty spesh one myself on the North coast that day. That's probably the trick mate - When both coasts are working on an easterly wind the majority of surfers head north out of habbit, and south coast gems are just as good but virtually empty. Then you get the days when there's a southerly swell and a northerly wind and then, even on a week day, those south coast lanes start jamming up.

I started working self employed this year, the difference surfing mon-fri during the day instead of the rammed evenings and weekends its like a different beach. The Thursday the week before was even nicer peaked at 9.5 on the buoys and only a hint of offshore = lushness :-)
